AI A-10 Strikes in NOD series

While playing the NOD series, I noticed something special about the
A-10 strikes. Through a couple of accidents, I found that the Warthogs
always seem to strike the northern most unit. 

Once I left a recon bike at the top of the map - it received the full
brunt of the strike.

Another time (scenario where one is supposed to set up SAM sites -
level 7 I think) a lone minigunner to the north of the installations
was hit.

I have since been putting out decoys - usually minigunners in the red
- and they seem always to get hit. 

Has anyone else noted this behavior with the AI?

Yeah! This happens alot when I play C&C, pretty usefull though.
Another thing thats quite good is if your Harvester is under attack,
just send a unit to shoot it once and then run back to your main army.
The enemy unit will follow you all the way back until it is shot by
another one of your units. (Then it will follow him).

Yeah, I have played the whole Nod series, and it happens in every 
mission.

Yes. Always. I read it in (I think) the unofficial FAQ.
